Turin – land of cars, home of FIAT
Visiting Turin has been on my list for a while, mainly because of their car museum (MAUTO), but then I also learned about their heritage in car manufacturing. I haven’t really checked anything before booking my flight (except flight prices), that’s how I ended up accidentally arriving on the day of the Abu Dhabi GP.…

Terramar – The forgotten track of Spain
I don’t know what is so attractive to me in old, abandoned racetracks (so attractive indeed, that with this one, Terramar, I can check the 3 oldest racetracks in Europe on my list) that I keep trying to find new ones and visit them. Someone told me that when I visit Barcelona, I should give…

Autoworld in Brussels
It was 8 years ago that I have first visited Autoworld in Brussels. I remember that I was the one pushing it, which looking back, I don’t understand, because I used to have almost zero interest in cars. Or maybe my interest was just latent… Anyway, I don’t have a lot of memories from back…

Is Spa the most beautiful circuit in the world?
Short answer: yes. A bit longer answer: I haven’t been to all circuits in the world but seeing Spa, I can fairly certainly say that it must be among the most beautiful ones for sure. The nature that surrounds it makes it very special (especially if you are a fan of pinetrees and fog), as…

Visiting Monza
Monza has been on my radar for a very long time (I mean, I’m an F1 fan for abour a year, but about 10 month of that year, I have been wanting to go to Monza). Good thing is that it is quite accessible, it’s near Milan, there is great public transport there and there…
